[request] Show Private status and allow making private

Post by Vertelemming »

While I love DHT, I tend to download from a fair number of private trackers, and if I'm not absolutely certain that a torrent is private, I usually end up disabling DHT for safety until I can make certain. It would be much easier if there was an ability to see whether or not a certain torrent is marked private, and have an option to make a non-reversable upgrade of a torrent from public to private status. Would this be difficult to do?

It's in the Options tab.. You can see the private flag, you just can't change it.

Hrm. So it is. Thought I'd checked there.

Is there some particular reason it's in the Options tab if it's non-selectable, instead of the Details or Statistics tabs?

Originally it was an option you could modify, but I have changed that since it doesn't really make sense to be able to do that. I guess it could be moved.
